features and he bit out, “Repeat after me, princess. Josh wants me .”
Shock and heat hit her system and she gasped.
His fingers shifted, slipped into her hair and his voice hissed out, “I’m serious. Repeat it. Josh wants me.”
“Josh, please—“
“Now!” he barked and she jumped.
“Josh w-wants me,” her voice came out shaky and soft.
“Josh wants me so bad his guts are tied in knots of constant pain,” he pounded the words through his teeth and waited.
His eyes seared into hers and she attempted to answer. “Josh wants me s-so bad—“ she found it impossible to say and her words dwindled off.
He reached up and his fingers twisted through her hair until he was holding her face in both of his strong hands. He continued to punch out his words in third person. “He thinks about me constantly.” As he spoke, his gaze ran over her lips, her nose, and the hair that he held in his hands. “He lives from one hour to the next for the day he can sink into me.”
Hannah’s insides were lacerated by his primal words. It was almost more than her youth and innocence could handle. At the same time, an exquisite pleasure infiltrated her system at what he was telling her. He was telling her the truth . He wanted her just as much as she wanted him. Her body shook as the depth of his need and what he was trying to convey to her sank in.
He continued in a harsh biting tone, “But I don’t want Josh to go to prison.”
She was silent as she trembled in his hold.
“Say it,” he bit out.
A single tear escaped from her eye.
“Say it ,” he growled, even as his thumb shot out and wiped away the tear.
Hannah sucked in a shuddering breath. “I d-don’t want Josh to go to p-prison.” Her eyes closed as more tears welled over.
His hands lifted from her and he took a step back.
“Good girl," he praised. "Do us both a favor and remember that the next time you come looking for me. Repeat it to yourself if it helps. I’m dead serious, Hannah. You may feel grown-up, you may even know what you want, but the State of Texas doesn’t agree with you .”
He took another step toward the fence and turned once more to stare into her eyes. His voice only softened slightly. “You have to have mercy on me, princess. There’s only so much I can take before I’ll snap, okay?”
Her eyes clung to his and she vowed to herself she wouldn’t come looking for him again. “Okay.”
